Well it's a new year and I'm really ready for a new me! This is my 3rd time on Atkins and its going to stay that way. I'm tired of letting myself down every time I do great on this diet and then something comes up like a holiday or something and I end up breaking my diet. I'm going to stay strong and focused this time not just for myself but for my two kids! They need their mommy around! I bought two glass jars and marbles and made GOAL JARS. I added 100 marbles for the 100 pounds I need to lose...I'm happy to say that I have already moved 7 marbles to the pounds lost jar. I think this will be another big help to visualize my weight loss. Anyways, I'm glad to be back and read everyone else's success stories on this site!
